Day 3: Part 2 of 2
Emma's POV
I held Ellie in my arms, tears streaming down my cheeks. Ellie was limp as I held her, an unsteady beat was the only sound in the room. As Sean watched me hld her he asked me if Ellie really was my sister. No, I had replied wondering why he asked. The doctor walked in and began talking to Sean. Wiping tears away I stood up and walked over, refraining from holding his hand; we were supposed to be brother and sister.
"Doctor how is she?" Sean asked. I stood in fear.
"We don't know if she'll make it. She's lost a lot of blood and we're not getting enough blood back in her as she loses it." He walked over to Ellie.
"But she's bandaged. How's it coming out?" I askd. He picked her hand up and held the bottom of her wrist up for us to see. I cringed and Sean hugged me. The bandages, although they were thick, were soaked in blood. I turned and buried my face in Sean's chest, more tears coming out. Sean wrapped his arms around me.
"Doctor...will she live?" Sean asked, his voice quivering. Ellie's heartbeat became more irregular. The doctor I could hear began changing her bandages. I couldn't bare to turn and around and see.
Sean's POV
He slowly unwrapped the bandages around Ellie's limp wrist. He removed one completely from her wrist and revealed two inch deep gashes. I gasped and held Emma closer. As he held her wrist and reached for more bandages more blood spilled down her arm. Quickly he grabbed a rag and held it tightly to her wrist. I let go of Emma and walked over. I put my hand around her wrist and held the rag in place, nodding to the doctor. Emma came over and placed her hand ovre mine and the rag, no words could comfort us. No words were needed much less wanted. The blood started to come through the rag. Emma made a gag sound and turned her head away. I looked at Ellie and with my free hand I brushed a strand of sweaty hair away from her face. Her face did not shift in the slightest way and that worried me.
The doctor removed the rag, and our hands, and started wrapping thick gauze and tape to her wrist.
"Doctor...why not just stitch it up?" Emma asked, my hand on her shoulder.
"We've tried that three times and all times they've come out on their own." He sighed and repeated the process of wrapping her other wrist. Gently he placed her hands by her sides. Scratching the nape of his neck he looked up. "It doesn't look good," He began to change the empty blood bag and replaced it with a full one. After it was hoooked up the blood slowly went into the IV tube and into Ellie. She didn't move and inch for the next three hours Emma and I sat there watching her. The doctor left shortly after changing the IV bag. AFter the third hour I stood up and stretched. As Emma shifted in her seat the steady beeping we'd been hearing for three hours started going haywire. First high then low then high again. Her heart began beeping widly and we didn't know what to do. I looked into Emma's face with a fearful face with my own. Emma panicked, jumped up, ran to the nurse call button, and pressed it. By the time the nurse go there Ellie's heart machine showed one long line. Ellie's heart had stopped.
Emma's POV
Everything was a blur. All I can remember is Ellie's heart stopping and Sean holding me close. If you asked me what happened during the hours they tried to revive Ellie I couldn't tell you. I couldn't believe what I had caused. She had done this to herself.
Sean's POV
I held onto Emma unable to close out everythign. I cried while she wasn't looking and when she did look I dried my tears quickly. A very difficult task.
Ellie was pronounced dead at 10:45 PM.
Ellie's POV
I dropped Sean off at Craig's house. He couldn't go to his own and I drove to my house. My parents and brother were still gone and probably wouldn't be back until later. I sat on my couch and thought about what I had caused. I rubbed my arms and rocked back and forth.
'My fault...my fault...mine...' I chanted to myself. I walked to Snake's cabinet and pulled out his gun and stared at it. The guilt was just to much. I put it to my head.
Sean's POV
I sat in Craig's house staring into space. Something in my gut told me that I needed to go be with Emma. At first I ignored the feeling, but it kept nagging at me. Finally I grabbed Craig's keys and drove his car to Emma's house. As I pulled up I heard a gunshot.
Emma's POV
I held the gun to my head and scribbled a quick note to Sean and my family. Tears streaming down my face I slowly pulled the trigger. Everything went black as headlights came into the driveway.
Sean's POV
I ran into the house.
"Emma!" I yelled, knowing what I was about to find.
On the living room floor was emma. Blood around her head and a small hole in the side. I bent down to find a pulse...there wasn't one.
I looked around, sobbing uncontrollably, and saw a note. It read...
Sean & Family,
I luv you so much but i killed ellie, i dont deserve to live if she cant.
Goodbye...emma
I sat down, my whole body shook with the racking sobs that were coming from me. I saw the gun near Emma and grabbed it. I stared at it realizing that I hadn't just caused Ellie's death but Emma's as well. Emma...my Emma...she was gone. I put the gun to my head and looked at Emma. Lying down next to her I put the gun between my eyes and pulled the trigger.
My fault was the last thought through my mind and my world went pitch black.
